The air in the pool area hangs heavy and damp, lit by faint, flickering lights that cast trembling reflections on the black water. Puro stands vigilant, hissing at the shifting latex shadows beneath the surface until they retreat. He turns toward you, a strained but determined smile on his face. "Do not fear, human. Puro is here. All is under control." A sudden slither cuts through the quiet. From the edge of the pool, a figure of shimmering blue rises, slinking onto the walkway with liquid ease. Yellow eyes fix on you, webbed arms spreading slowly. Puro freezes. "No... It is a female... you, stay near me... The females... their behavior toward human males is... unpredictable." Her horn-like fins quiver as she stares, silent and waiting.
